  • 0:00 - 0:21
    (Dear Linden, Dear Linden
    written and performed by Niko Donburi)
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    Dear Linden, Dear Linden,
    why is Second Life broke?
  • 0:25 - 0:30
    The grid is grey-gooed
    and your blog is a joke.
  • 0:30 - 0:34
    With all of the money that we pay to you
  • 0:34 - 0:39
    Can't you hire yourselves
    a programmer or two?

  • 0:52 - 0:57
    Unverified, Unverified,
    we hear what you say
  • 0:57 - 1:01
    and at Linden Lab
    we don't like things this way
  • 1:01 - 1:05
    If we knew how to fix it,
    we probably could
  • 1:05 - 1:10
    just keep crossing your fingers
    and knocking on wood
  • 1:11 - 1:17
    Signed, A Linden
  • 1:24 - 1:29
    Dear Linden, Dear Linden,
    the most recent update
  • 1:29 - 1:33
    so corrupted my textures
    I must always rebake.
  • 1:33 - 1:38
    Tomorrow I partner
    and don't know what to do
  • 1:38 - 1:43
    all my clothing is missing
    and my custom skin too
  • 1:43 - 1:50
    Signed, No Inventory
  • 1:56 - 2:00
    No Inventory, No Inventory,
    we hear what you say
  • 2:00 - 2:05
    and at Linden Lab
    we don't like things this way
  • 2:05 - 2:09
    If we knew how to fix it,
    we probably could
  • 2:09 - 2:14
    just keep crossing your fingers
    and knocking on wood
  • 2:14 - 2:21
    Signed, A Linden
  • 2:28 - 2:32
    Dear Linden, Dear Linden,
    I need some relief
  • 2:32 - 2:37
    whenever I log on I always get griefed
  • 2:37 - 2:41
    In your quest to make millions
    was this foreseen?
  • 2:41 - 2:45
    Could you please now turn off
    your PR machine?
  • 2:46 - 2:52
    Signed, A Furry
  • 3:00 - 3:04
    Furry, Dear Furry,
    we hear what you say
  • 3:04 - 3:08
    and at Linden Lab,
    we don't like things this way
  • 3:08 - 3:12
    If we knew how to fix it,
    we probably could
  • 3:12 - 3:17
    just keep crossing your fingers
    and knocking on wood
  • 3:17 - 3:24
    Signed, A Linden
  • 3:32 - 3:36
    Linden, Dear Linden,
    please give us a choice
  • 3:36 - 3:41
    to stick with the chat
    and get rid of the voice
  • 3:41 - 3:46
    'cause once my partner finds out I'm a man
  • 3:48 - 3:53
    I do not think that he'll understand
  • 3:54 - 4:01
    Signed, Roleplayer
  • 4:08 - 4:12
    Roleplayer, Roleplayer,
    we hear what you say
  • 4:13 - 4:17
    and at Linden Lab,
    we don't like things this way
  • 4:17 - 4:21
    If we knew how to fix it,
    we probably could
  • 4:21 - 4:26
    just keep crossing your fingers
    and knocking on wood
  • 4:26 - 4:30
    just keep crossing your fingers
    and crossing your fingers
  • 4:30 - 4:38
    and crossing your fingers
    keep cross-- and knocking on wood
  • 4:40 - 4:47
    Signed, A Linden (TM)

This video with dynamic subtitles is a response to a question asked about the use of Second Life in education in comment 17 of http://iamarf.org/2013/05/03/prove-di-inserimento-embed-in-blog-wordpress-com-ltis13 , in the context of cMOOC #ltis13 of Italian University Line, organized by Professor Andreas Formiconi. See http://www.iuline.it/ambiente/index.php?pag=corsi&id_corso=10 .

I therefore surmise that publishing this video on YouTube is allowed under Fair Use for Education.
